■Ratings
Note: 1. DC ripple rate: 20% max. (A single-phase, full-wave-rectification power supply can be used).
2. Do not use an inverter output as the power supply. Refer to Safety Precautions for All Timers for details.
3. Models with 24-to-48-VAC or 12-to-48-VDC power supply have inrush current. Caution is thus required when turning ON and OFF power
to the Timer with a non-contact output from a device such as a sensor. (Models with an inrush current of approximately 50 mA and a 24-
VDC power supply are available (the H3CR-A-302 and H3CR-A8-302).)
4. The values are for when the terminals 2 and 7 and terminals 10 and 6 are short-circuited, and include the consumption current of the
input circuit.
5. Refer to Safety Precautions for All Timers when using the Timer together with a 2-wire AC proximity sensor.

Safety Precautions (H3CR-A)
Refer to Safety Precautions for All Timers.
Note: The following precautions apply to all H3CR-A models.
■Power Supplies
For the power supply of an input device of the H3CR-A@/-A@S/-AP,
use an isolating transformer with the primary and secondary
windings mutually isolated and the secondary winding not grounded.
The H3CR-A@/-A@S/AP’s power supply terminal 2 is a common ter-
minal for input signals to the Timer. Do not disconnect the wires on
terminal 2, otherwise the internal circuitry of the Timer will be dam-
aged.
Make sure that the voltage is applied within the specified range, oth-
erwise the internal elements of the Timer may be damaged.
■Input/Output
Relationship between Input and Power
Supply Circuits (except for H3CR-A8E)
The H3CR-A (except for H3CR-A8E) uses transformerless power
supply. When connecting a relay or transistor as an external signal
input device, pay attention to the following points to prevent short-
circuiting due to a sneak current to the transformerless power supply.
If a relay or transistor is connected to two or more Timers, the input
terminals of those Timers must be wired properly so that they will not
differ in phase, otherwise the terminals will be short-circuited to one
another.
It is impossible to provide two independent power switches as shown
below regardless of whether or not the Timers are different in phase.

Relationship between Input and Power
Supply Circuits (H3CR-A@/-A@S)
An appropriate input is applied to the input signal terminals of the
H3CR-A@/-A@S when one of the input terminals is short-circuited
with the common terminal (terminal 2) for the input signals. Never
use terminal 10 as the common terminal for this purpose, otherwise
the internal circuit of the Timer will be damaged.
Do not connect a relay or any other load between input terminals,
otherwise the internal circuit of the Timer will be damaged due to the
high-tension voltage applied to the input terminals.
Relationship between Input and Power
Supply Circuits (H3CR-AP)
Since the input circuit and the power supply circuit are configured
independently, the input circuit can be turned ON or OFF irrespective
of the ON/OFF state of the power supply.
It must be noted that a voltage equivalent to the power supply voltage
is applied to the input circuit.
If a relay or transistor is connected to two or more Timers, the input
terminals of those Timers must be wired properly so that they will not
be different in phase or the terminals will be short-circuited to one
another (refer to the figures below).
Common to All H3CR-A Models
With the H3CR-AP, input wires must be as short as possible. If the
floating capacity of wires exceeds 1,200 pF (approx. 10 m for cables
with 120 pF/m), the operation will be affected. Pay particular
attention when using shielded cables.
The H3CR-A@S transistor output is isolated from the internal
circuitry by a photocoupler. Therefore, either NPN or PNP output is
possible.

Operation (Common)
Note: The undermentioned is common for all H3CR models.
■Basic Setting
Setting of Selectors
The selectors can be turned clockwise and counterclockwise to
select the desired time unit, time range, or operating mode.
Each selector has a snap mechanism that secures the selector at a
given position. Set the selector at a position at which it is secured. Do
not set it midway between two securing positions or a malfunction
could result from improper setting.
Selection of Operating Mode
• H3CR-A Multifunctional Timer
Turn the operating mode selector with a screwdriver until the desired
operating mode (H3CR-A/AP/AS: A, B, B2, C, D, or E, H3CR-A8/
A8S/A8E: A, B2, E or J, H3CR-A-300: G or J) appears in the display
window located above the selector.
Selection of Time Unit and Time Range
• H3CR-A Multifunctional Timer
The desired time unit (sec, min, hrs, or 10h) is displayed in the
window below the time setting knob by turning the time unit selector
located at the lower right corner of the front panel. A time range (1.2,
3, 12, or 30/2.4, 6, 24, or 60 for H3CR-A@-301) is selected with the
time range selector at the lower left corner of the front panel, and the
selected time range appears (in the window at the lower right part)
within the plastic frame of the time setting knob.
• H3CR-F Twin Timers
A time range (0 to 1.2, 0 to 3, 0 to 12, or 0 to 30) is selected for ON-
and OFF-time using the time range selector at the lower left corner of
the front panel, and the selected time range appears within the
plastic frame of the time setting knob (= scale range display
windows).
For ON-time, the desired time unit (sec, 10 s, min, and hrs, or 10 s,
10 min, hrs, and 10 h) is indicated in the ON-time unit display window
at the lower right corner of the front panel and can be changed by
turning the ON-time unit selector located below the ON-time unit
display window.
For OFF-time, the desired time unit (sec, 10 s, min, and hrs, or 10 s,

Protective Cover
Y92A-48B
The protective cover protects the front panel, particularly the time
setting section, against dust, dirt, and water. It also prevents the set
value from being altered due to accidental contact with the time
setting knob.
Note: 1. The Y92A-48B Protective Cover is made of a hard plastic
and therefore it must be removed to change the timer set
value.
2. The Protective Cover cannot be mounted if the Panel Cover
(sold separately) is used on the Timer.
Hold-down Clip
Hold-down clips are sold in sets of two.
Time Setting Ring/Panel Cover for H3CR-A/-G
There are three types of Panel Covers (Y92P-48GL, Y92P-48GB,
and Y92P-48GM), all of which are available in three colors. Use the
most suitable type of Panel Cover with the design of the scaling plate
according to the application.
When setting a given time for the Timer, use of the Y92S-27 or
Y92S-28 Time Setting Ring facilitates the time setting operation and
minimizes possible setting errors by operators.
The Y92F-73 or Y92-F-74 Flush Mounting Adapter or the Protective
Cover cannot be used.
The Time Setting Ring and Panel Cover should be used as a pair.

Safety Precautions for All H3CR Models
Note: The undermentioned is common for all H3CR models.
■Precautions for Safe Use
Do not use the Timer in the following locations.
•Locations with radical temperature changes.
•Locations with high humidity that may result in condensation.
•Locations with excessive vibration or shock.
•Locations with corrosive gas or dust.
•Locations where the Timer is exposed to sprayed water, oil, or
chemicals.
Organic solvents (such as paint thinner) as well as strong acid or
alkali solutions will damage the outer casing of the Timer.
If the Timer is used in an area with excessive electronic noise, be
sure to separate the Timer, wires, and input device as far as possible
from the noise sources. Furthermore, it is recommended that the
input signal wiring be shielded to prevent electronic interference.
Using a surge absorber is recommended if surge voltages occur.
Pay the utmost attention not to make mistakes in polarity when wiring
the Timer.
The H3CR Series uses a transformerless power supply. Do not touch
the input terminals while the supply voltage is applied, otherwise an
electric shock may be received.
■Precautions for Correct Use
Changing the Setting
Do not change the time unit, time range, or operation mode while the
Timer is in operation, otherwise the Timer may malfunction.
The time unit and time range can be set with the respective selectors
turned clockwise or counterclockwise.
The selectors are of notched so that they will snap when they are
properly set. Do not set the selectors midway between notches,
otherwise the Timer may break or malfunction.
Do not use H3CR-A models (except for H3CR-A@S) in flicker mode,
or H3CR-F models at the lowest selector setting. Doing so may result
in damage to contacts.
Power Supplies
A DC power supply can be connected if its ripple factor is 20% or
less and the mean voltage is within the rated operating voltage range
of the Timer.
An AC power supply can be connected to the power input terminals
without regard to polarity. A DC power supply must be connected to
the power input terminals as designated according to the polarity of
the terminals.
Make sure that the voltage is applied within the specified range,
otherwise the internal elements of the Timer may be damaged.
Connect the power supply voltage through a relay or switch in such a
way that the voltage reaches a fixed value at once, otherwise the
Timer may not be reset or a timer error may result.
Be aware that the operating voltage will rise by 5% if the rated
voltage is applied to the Timer continuously while the ambient
temperature is close to the maximum permissible ambient
temperature.
The power supply circuit of any H3CR-A model (except for H3CR-
A@S), H3CR-F 100-to-240-VAC model, and H3CR-G model is a
switching circuit. If the power line connected to the power supply
circuit has a transformer with high inductance, a counter-
electromotive voltage will be induced by the inductance. To suppress
the voltage, apply a CR filter to the power supply line.
Precautions for EN61812-1
Conformance
The H3CR Series as a built-in timer conforms to EN61812-1
provided that the following conditions are satisfied.
Make sure that no voltage is applied to any terminals before
dismounting the Timer from the Socket.
The output section of the H3CR is provided only with basic isolation.
The H3CR itself is designed under the following conditions:
•Overvoltage category III
•Pollution degree 2
•Isolation
Operation parts: Reinforced isolation
−With clearance of 5.5 mm and creepage distance of 5.5 mm at
230 VAC
Output: Basic isolation (See note)
−With clearance of 3 mm and creepage distance of 3 mm at
230 VAC
Note: The 11-pin model ensures basic isolation by itself and also
ensures basic isolation with the 11-pin model mounted to the
OMRON P2CF-11-@ or P3GA-11 Socket.
Connect the two output contacts different in polarity to the loads so
that they will be the same in potential.
Others
If the Timer is mounted to a control board, dismount the Timer from
the control board or short-circuit the control board circuitry before
carrying out a voltage withstand test between the electric circuitry
and non-charged metal part of the Timer. This protects the internal
circuitry of the Timer from damage.
In the interest of product improvement, specifications are subject to change without notice.
